Celestial Beast Hamish’s words instantly reminded Jared of Night Sea. Night Sea was also a border


    between two regions, and flight was forbidden there as well. Jared was puzzled as to who had set that


    restriction that prevented flying at the borders between regions.


    Nevertheless, the airship could only descend slowly. Once itnded, everyone disembarked, and Cloud


    proceeded to stow away the airship.


    Upon Jared’s departure from the airship, he noticed that the ground beneath was coated in reddish-


    brown soil. Even the mountain rocks disyed the same ominous hue, as if the entire terrain had been


    steeped in blood, weathered over the years into this haunting color.


    However, the others seemed ustomed to that sight and showed no change in expression.


    “Everyone, be careful as we’ll be entering the southern region upon passing through the range of


    Mount Crimson. Not only is this area infested with various demon beasts, but there are also people


    waiting to ambush the parties heading to the southern region. We must practice extra vignce,”


    Hamish warned the crowd loudly.


    The group nodded. They were naturally aware of the lurking dangers since they had chosen to travel to


    the southern region via that route. Otherwise, they would’ve used the Teleportation Array in Crimson


    Imperial City.


    After receiving some instructions, everyone began walking toward Mount Crimson. As Jared looked up,


    he saw the unending mountain range that stretched across the horizon, which seemed to have merged


    the sky and earth.


    Deep in the mountain range, dense fog surged, and the roars of demon beasts echoed intermittently.


    Noticing Jared’s unfamiliarity with Mount Crimson, Misho walked up to him and whispered. “This Mount


    Crimson is dangerous, but it also presents many opportunities. There are countless precious mystical


    herbs here and some unique demon beasts not found elsewhere. Some of the demon beasts here


    might mutate into celestial beasts. If you can kill a celestial beast and obtain its celestial beast core, it


    would be invaluable.” “Celestial beast?” Jared was taken aback. “There isn’t any celestial energy here,


    so how could the demon beasts possibly mutate into celestial beasts?” Jared was baffled. Demon


    beasts are demon beasts. How could they mutate into celestial beasts? Moreover, the Ethereal Realm


    doesn’t have celestial energy, so how could the demon beasts turn into celestial beasts?


    “Contrary to the belief that there’s no celestial energy, it’s present in the range of Mount Crimson. The


    reddish-brown color of this mountain range originated from the several immortals who sought refuge


    here during the Celestial Battle.

    Realizing the impossibility of returning to the celestial realm, these immortals chose to dissipate their


    flesh and blood into the mountains.


    Over millennia, their remnants blended with the expanse of Mount Crimson, saturating this area with


    celestial energy. However, this celestial energy doesn’t linger freely in the air. Instead, it remains


    concealed within rocks, nts, and trees, making its detection extremely challenging.


    In the rare event that demon beasts consume nts containing celestial energy, they might undergo a


    mutation into celestial beasts, though the likelihood is exceptionally low. Both celestial energy and


    celestial beasts are exceedingly rare, only to be stumbled upon by chance,” Misho elucidated to Jared


    with intricate detail.


    At that moment, Izolda stepped forward, a displeased expression on her face.


    “Grandpa, why are you telling him so much? Don’t forget he cursed you, saying you’d suffer ruptured


    meridians, and yet you’re still doing fine now, aren’t you?” “Shut up!” Misho red at Izolda.


    Izolda was incensed. She couldn’t fathom why her grandfather was so affable toward Jared.


    The two had engaged in cheerful conversation on the airship earlier, and now, Misho seemed


    intentionally drawn to Jared.


    In fact, everyone present observed Misho’s behavior and shared a simr sense of confusion. They


    couldn’tprehend why Misho was forging a connection with an apparently insignificant Body Fusion


    Realm cultivator. It was utterly perplexing.
